Description: "In Urban Injustice: How Ghettos Happen, Hilfiker presents a history of the inner city, an analysis of the social forces that made it inevitable, and a description of poverty programs since the New Deal that were more successful than most realize at attaining the goals set out for them - modest ones for the poor, more ambitious ones for the middle class and wealthy."--BOOK JACKET.
